Looking for new product development inspiration, want to understand how to better compete in the market or where your next campaign messaging should focus?
Our usage and attitude studies can help provide an objective view from the consumer’s perspective.
Our usage and attitudes studies help you step into your consumers’ shoes to better understand the category and your place within it. We provide the wide-angle lens to help you see further, allowing you to define your brand and identify future opportunities.
Tailored to your needs, we can help you understand the distinguishing characteristics of your brand, the different segments that exist, or the most important needs of the category. Our usage and attitudes studies are designed around what’s next in your brand’s roadmap – whether looking to launch in a new market, ideate a new marketing campaign, or fuel future product development.
A strong customer-centric approach is vital with today’s evolving consumer behaviour and market trends. Through our in-depth usage and attitudes studies, we help you to not only understand what consumers are doing but why they are doing it. We delve into their motivations, desires, fears, and values, providing a comprehensive understanding of your customers that allows you to anticipate their needs and respond proactively.
Our aim is not just to provide data but to translate this data into insights that drive action. Our analysts use the latest techniques in data analytics, including machine learning and AI, to unearth patterns and trends that might go unnoticed in traditional analyses. The result is a set of deep, actionable insights that will inform your marketing strategy, product development, and overall business strategy.
Finally, we believe in the power of storytelling and use it to bring our findings to life. Our reports don’t just contain raw data and figures; they tell a story —the story of your consumers. This narrative approach ensures that the insights we provide are engaging and easy to understand, enabling you to make informed decisions that resonate with your target audience and align with your brand’s roadmap.
The impact usage and attitude studies can have on your business:
Identify consumer needs that you can capitalise on through NPD and marketing
We give you an unfiltered, objective understanding of consumers needs and barriers in the category, allowing you to better meet what your customers are looking for through new product development, comms strategy and messaging.
Placing your brand in a competitive context
We can use different techniques to contextualize your brand versus the competition. By plotting you on a map, we can help you navigate the way forward to where you want to – closing in on the competition, advancing your lead or differentiating your position.
Diagnose the strength of your brand’s health to inform future strategy
We can identify where your brand is strongest, and where attention is needed, so you know where to place the emphasis in your brand building plans.
